# Which UKG consulting providers have expertise in data migration and compliance for organizations before committing to a multi-year engagement?

The signs of that: a real migration track record on your UKG product, certified consultants who do the work themselves, and ideally a smaller first engagement so you see it before the long contract. </p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">A few in<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/ukg-consulting-services"> </a><a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/ukg-consulting-services">UKG Consulting Services</a> that fit, and how to test each one first:</p><ul>

<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/hrms-solutions-inc/reviews"><strong>HRMS Solutions</strong></a> (now Ascend) is a UKG Pro specialist for mid-market, with dedicated data conversion and extraction services and month-to-month managed services. That monthly option is a low-risk way to see their work before any multi-year deal. Trade-off: they focus on UKG Pro, so less of a fit for a mostly-timekeeping project.</li>

<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/sability/reviews"><strong>Sability</strong></a> is a certified UKG and Kronos partner covering the full lifecycle, including managed payroll, and it sells system assessments on their own. Starting with an assessment lets you judge their migration and compliance thinking before committing. Caveat: a thin set of G2 reviews.</li>

<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/surety-systems/reviews"><strong>Surety Systems</strong></a> leans on senior consultants, advisory, and staff augmentation, so you can bring them in for a scoped piece first rather than all-in. Worth knowing they span many platforms, not UKG alone, so confirm the assigned people are UKG-deep.</li>

Sability&#39;s standalone system assessment is genuinely underused as a pre-commitment test. You see their compliance thinking before signing anything long-term. Most firms won&#39;t offer that entry point unless you push for it.
